The audacity to tout classism and ableism as reasons as to why people should "get to" use LLMs for their "write a novel in a month" challenge...

Even when someone's inability to write a novel in a month is because of their class or disability, I somehow doubt they want to let a machine write their novel for them. I mean, it's not like NaNoWriMo is a way to put food on the table or something, right?!!

This feels like the arguments Mid journey ~~fellators~~ fanboys were spouting a year ago (or has it been two?) on how not everyone can afford a school of fine arts 🙄

Also the "banking the unbanked" arguments from crypto fanboys before that.
